A Large Women's Sober Living Home in Cleveland

Forty-five beds makes this one of the larger certified residences in Cuyahoga County, and the household serves women exclusively. A single-gender population settles questions about shared bathrooms, house meetings and common space before they come up. The building is wheelchair accessible, which widens who can actually live there.

What Supervised-Level Recovery Housing Certification Establishes

Ohio Recovery Housing is the state's affiliate of the National Alliance for Recovery Residences, and since the start of 2026 its certification and the state recovery-housing registry have been one list. A certified residence commits in writing to a code of ethics. It discloses fees and house rules before anyone moves in. It keeps a written relapse and discharge policy, and it answers to a complaint process outside the house. The Supervised level describes a higher degree of staffing and oversight than a peer-run home, with clinical care delivered by outside providers.

Cuyahoga County Recovery Housing Near Cleveland's Hospitals

Cleveland is the seat of Cuyahoga County and home to the Cleveland Clinic and MetroHealth, two of the region's largest health systems. A resident here can keep a medical appointment, attend outpatient treatment and answer a court date without leaving the county.

Wheelchair Access at This Cleveland Recovery Residence

The property is accessible to residents who use a wheelchair, a detail the state registry tracks separately from bed count. Paired with a household of 45, that accessibility makes the home worth considering for women whose recovery plan already accounts for a mobility need.

Applying to This Cleveland Sober House

Ohio Recovery Housing certification entitles every applicant to the same disclosures before moving in: the weekly fee, the house rules, and the discharge policy. Those are the questions worth asking directly of Hitchcock Center for Women.
